for vegetables, salad and fruit, the air
humidity in vegetable container can be
regulated according to the quantity

of freshness.

slide the regulator to the left.
Larger quantities of food –
slide the regulator to the right.

temperatures than the refrigerator
compartment. Even temperatures below
0 °C may occur.
Ideal for storing fish, meat and sausage.
Not suitable for lettuce and vegetables
and produce sensitive to cold.
Freezer calendar
Fig. !/27
To prevent the quality of the frozen food
from deteriorating, do not exceed the
storage duration. The storage period
depends on the type of produce.
The figures next to the symbols indicate
the permitted storage period
of the produce in months. In the case
of commercially available frozen food
observe the date of manufacture or use-
by date.
Ice block
Fig. &
If a power failure or malfunction occurs,
the ice blocks can be used to slow down
the thawing process. The longest
storage time is obtained by placing
the ice pack on the food in the top
compartment.
To save space, the ice block
can be stored in the door compartment.
The ice blocks can also be used to cool
food temporarily , e. g. in a cold bag.
Active carbon filters
Fig. !/24
The activated carbon filter ensures that
air is replaced and odours reduced in
the appliance.
